Christian Group Calls for David Vitter to Resign


A conservative Christian group sent Louisiana Senator David Vitter, who in 2007 confessed to using the services of a high-profile prostitution ring, a letter Monday calling on him to follow former New York Rep. Anthony Weiner's lead and resign.

Weiner announced his resignation last week following a Twitter scandal. The Democratic representative, whose resignation is effective midnight June 21, sent lewd photos to women via Twitter then lied about it.

Several Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, had called for Weiner's resignation.

Unlike Weiner, Vitter, who admitted to "serious sin" in 2007 after his number was disclosed by the alleged prostitution ring "D.C. Madam," never faced the same pressure from fellow Republicans to resign following his scandal.
